Help! The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama!

Chapter 825: Chapter 658: Found the Crystal Core! (2)

What they seek to create is an entirely new experimental subject, with memories and emotions fully under their control; only then can it become a perfect, powerful, and controllable weapon.

Shou He looked at the hopeful female before him, chuckled softly, and replied, "Of course. Soon, you will reunite with your Beast Husband."

Seeing her excited and happy expression, he felt even more scornful inside. He thought she would be a troublesome issue, but she turned out to be a young and foolish female, reckless in love, and ultimately easy to deceive.

It seems he had overestimated her.

Nothing to worry about.

Shen Tang suddenly recalled something, a shy blush spreading across her face, and pleaded, "Family Head, I have one more request."

"Speak." Capturing the person successfully, Shou He’s mood was good, appearing amiable.

Shen Tang’s face reddened further as she bowed her head and said, "I want, when the Beast Husband awakens, to be the first one he sees... I want the first person he glimpses when waking to be me."

She looked just like a female deeply in love with her Beast Husband, a sentiment that moved other Beastmen somewhat.

Shou He also examined Shen Tang; her looks and figure were indeed stunning, enough to captivate young males.

No wonder both the original and replication fell in love with her.

Such beauty, it would indeed be a shame to simply kill her.

He smiled kindly and said, "Of course you can, then... you should come with us to the laboratory."

The female paused for a moment, then revealed a delighted and surprised expression, seemingly overwhelmed by the kindness, her voice even trembling, "Th-thank you, Family Head!"

"You’re welcome. You’re my daughter-in-law, and you’ve helped me capture this boy, so naturally, I wouldn’t treat you poorly."

Shou He sneered inside; he could never keep a foreign female, even if she was harmless, he wouldn’t feel secure.

Still, her genes could be preserved to create replication, making her an excellent tool for executing a "Beauty Strategy."

Soon, they returned to the laboratory in the Royal City.

The lab had been restored to its original state, orderly, without any sign of recent chaos.

Shou He arranged for Shen Tang to wait on the first floor of the lab, assigning several trusted subordinates to "protect" her, but in truth, they were monitors.

Once he dealt with Shou Jin’s situation, he would attend to this female.

Shou He personally escorted Shou Jin to the thirteenth floor of the lab, which was the dissection area.

They secured the unconscious man on the lab table, bound his limbs, ready to cut open his chest and extract the complete Crystal Core; once complete, their task would be accomplished.

Shou He stood by, vigilantly watching the lab table.

Shou Jin was injected with a highly concentrated anesthetic, specially made by the lab, sufficient to incapacitate Overlord Level mutant species. If injected into Beastmen below the Primordial Beast Tier, eighty percent would be paralyzed or even killed; even those at the Primordial Beast Tier would remain unconscious for half a day.

Shou Jin remained asleep and unresponsive, seemingly not even breathing from the outside.

The dissection proceeded methodically.

Everything was going too smoothly, to the point Shou He felt it was overly simple, making him uncertain.

Knowing he had captured them here, even if they wanted to stir trouble, it would be impossible.

So he relaxed, waiting for good news.

Watching his son’s chest being sliced open, with flesh and blood exposed, Shou He’s eyes lacked any sympathy, filled only with extreme fanaticism and excitement.

Midway through the dissection, a staff member suddenly said, "Strange, why is the heartbeat still..."

They had already severed the Beastman’s aorta, logically the heart should quickly cease activity, yet the heartbeat sound seemed unaffected, even growing louder.

The staff had never encountered such a situation.

Following procedure, they opened the heart, discovering instead of a transparent Crystal Core, a... miniature bomb!

"Not good!"

"We’ve been deceived!"

"Run now,"

The Beastmen’s faces changed dramatically, but before they could escape, the heartbeat sound, or more accurately, the ticking of the timed bomb, after a slight sound, suddenly exploded.

A thunderous roar, the entire first floor of the lab collapsed from the blast.

Shou He was very close; the explosion shockwave threw him several meters, crashing heavily into the debris, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

The once intact half of his face now became a gory mess.

Now, his whole face was utterly ruined, ghastly like a demon.

"It’s that damn woman!"

Furious to the extreme, eyes threatening to burst, truly akin to an infernal demon.

They had fallen for her tricks once again.

"Seize her!"

"Carve and dismember her!"

...

On the other side, Shen Tang had already taken down the Beastmen guarding her, sticking on a Concealing Talisman and Instant Teleportation Talisman, rushing from the first floor straight to the deep underground, reaching over ninety floors.

Suddenly, the entire space shook violently, she looked up, her lips curling into a slight teasing smile.
